How do I change the default color (gray) that 'Edit - Find' uses?

When I search for a key word in a PDF file viewed in Safari web page using Edit -> Find 
It defaults to highlighting the text it finds in light gray which is very hard to see. I would like to change the highlight color to something much easier to see on the page - like red for instance.

What version of Pages & what version of OS X are you using?
A problem with an early Software Update for Snow Leopard caused a lot of problems. The problem is not whether or not your system is the current version but how it got there. You must use the combo updater, not the one from Software Update unless it specifically states it is the combo. Software Update will only offer the combo if your system is two or more versions behind.
If you're not running the latest versions of the iWork apps & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. If you installed from the downloaded trial or the retail box, they must be in the iWork '09 (or '08 if that's what you're using) folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

  • How do I change the default color in pages.

    How do I change the default color in pages.  Everytime I try to copy and paste a passage, I am unable to do so because it seems that the ink is always white on white.  Sometimes I am lucky and can change it using the color box in the format bar, but it's a rarity when I'm able to do it.

    Hi Hannah,
    Inspector > Text > Tabs Button > Tab Settings > Default Tabs.
    To set a tab stop on the go, click in the ruler.
    If you can't see the ruler, Menu > View > Show Rulers.
    To set tab stops for lines (paragraphs) you have already typed, select those paragraphs and set them all at once.
    Also, have a look at Menu > Pages > Preferences > Rulers.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • How do I change the default apple ID that's displayed when buying or updating apps? Mine is defaulting to a no-longer-existing ID, and I don't know how to change it.

    How do I change the default apple ID that's displayed when buying or updating apps? It's currently defaulting to a no-longer-existing ID, and I don't know how to change it.

    Any apps you purchased with the no-longer-existing ID will always have to be updated with the password to that account, you cannot merge account purchases.
    To change to your new account go to Settings > Store > Apple ID: and put in the one you want to use.

    Hi John,
    Thank You for your reply
    I know that can be solved by using skin.
    but when I use (dark - medium - light ) the appearance change without using skins.
    I ask is there any way to change the default color (blue) with any other color.
    - It means when I write a dark in decorativeBox theme I found the decorativeBox in red color (or any other color) instead of blue color.
    - Where can I find the place which say the blue is the default color?
    Thank You..

  • How do I change the default color scheme in Dreamweaver CS6?

    Hi All
    I just updated to CS6 on my work computer from CS5 on my personal computer (preferences and stuff were not transferred), and I'm trying to figure out how I can import my custom color scheme that I was using in CS5. In CS5 I was able to replace the Colors.xml file instead of going through each individual color option. I haven't had the same success with CS6.
    In CS5 the Colors.xml file was located at this path (Mac)
    /Users/%name%/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS5/%localization(en_US)%/Configuration/CodeColoring
    The problem with CS6 is that there is no Dreamweaver CS6 folder at that path after "Adobe/"
    Has anyone else encountered this problem? Any solutions? Looking at code on a white background is hurting my eyes!

    Do you think this maybe has to do with Mountain Lion?
    Here's a screenshot of no Dreamweaver CS6 folder in Library/../..
    And no, it's not in the "Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium" folder either. I keep going through all of the folders hoping the Dreamweaver cs6 folder will show up, but nothing! Thanks for your help guys. If you think of anything else, please respond!

  • How can I change the default number for a contact when using Siri

    My husband has one mobile for work, one for home, both are in my favorites. When i'd ask Siri to dial his number, it would always ask me which one to use. Recently when calling him Siri asked if I would like to use his work number as the default and I mistakenly agreed. Now Siri never asks which number to dial and always dials the work number. How can I change that? I would like to make the default the home number.

    Thanks all for your responses.
    I tried to "order" Siri to change my husband's default number and whatever syntax I used for my request Siri responded with a web search on how to set favorites.
    So I ended up deleting the work number from my husband's contact information and I used Siri to call him a couple of times. After 24 hours (random time frame) I added his work mobile back to his contact information, but not in the favorites.
    SIri now dials his home number because it's the only one in the favorites.
    I'll add it to the favorites in due course.

  • How do I change the default word processor that Firefox opens my downloads in?

    I deleted the one that I originally set (Works Word Processor), and can not open any documents until I change this setting to Microsoft Word. I get an error message saying "[file name] could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences." Okay, but how?

  • How do I change the default colors used by Flex charts controls?

    Default 28 colors in mx.charts.styles.HaloDefaults.
    I want to add some colors, How should I do?

    I'm tryint to solve the same problem. There is a solution to reset the array (or to change in your case) HaloDefaults.defaultColors on the preinitialize event for example for Application.
    <s:Application ... preinitialize="onPreinitialize()">
    <fx:Script>
            <![CDATA[
         import mx.charts.styles.HaloDefaults;
         use namespace mx_internal;
         import mx.core.mx_internal;           
         public static const myDefaultColors:Array = [ 0xff000b, 0xc87eb];
         private function onPreinitialize():void{
              HaloDefaults.defaultColors = myDefaultColors;
         ]]>
    </fx:Script>
    <!-- Some chart -->
    </s:Application>

  • How do I change the default email app Firefox for Android uses?

    I'm using 8SMS as my default messaging app. When I try to share a link, Firefox gives me an error saying that messaging isn't my default app so it can't compose the SMS. Is there a place to change which app Firefox looks for when composing SMS messages?

    Hello,
    Did you choose share via 8sms? And what does the error message say exactly?
    Thanks

  • How do I change the default window color?

    Having white screens is too bright for my eyes!! I always change the default window color in Windows (hiss hiss) to a light shade of gray and that setting carries thru to all windows (i.e. Word, Excel, notepad....). Is it possible to do a similar thing with Tiger? I see that I can choose between a couple of "schemes" from a "Desktop and Dashboard Settings" area (or similar - i don't have my mac here now so can't look to see the proper name) but I see no way to alter colors within those schemes. If you can tell me how to change the default color for my windows I will be awfully happy. thanks.

    Personally, I wouldn't trust it, and I don't hesitate to try these things most of the time even though they sometimes cause problems. But I've used Unsanity products before and they all require installing a preference pane called APE; Application Enhancement module, and that thing caused me lots of problems for my system, lots of crashes and flakiness. I won't use it again.
    But I'm sure there are lots of people using it happily, but if you don't feel confident in dealing with system problems stay away from anything that adds a system preference pane or goes up in the top menu bar at the top (Apple icons excepted) or has to start up with the system.

  • How can I change the default text color (black to blue) in Mail on Mountain Lion

    How can I change the default text color (black to blue) in Mail on out going email with Mountain Lion

    There really aren't default outgoing font settings. They are only there for viewing. A workaround I have seen mentioned is to start you signature with the font style you want to use. When you start your message, click in that first part of your signature.
    Something like
    defaults
    Signature

  • How can I change the default fill and stroke colors for new shapes?

    As you can see in the following screen recording, after I change the stroke and fill color, all my subsequent rectangles are created respecting these new colors. But then when I delete all the rectangles, choose the rectangle shape tool once again, and start creating new rectangles, they start getting created with another color I had used some time ago (and I don't know how did it become the default color).
    http://tinypic.com/r/64jrwp/6
    So how can I change the defaults, so that the fill color is say #ddd, and the shape has no stroke at all?
    Thanks.

    When you have the shape tool selected you will see in the tool bar below - file edit etc a fill and stroke. This is where you can change the colours.
    You can keep drawing your shapes like you did in the video but then select the rectangle and change the colour from this tool bar. The reason it changes will be because you changed the colours you were using (foreground / background) that display in the left side tool bar.
